Unofficial loving parody of a parody is not connected in any way to the BBC, kudos to Jay & Lynn.

In this rare case, both his critics, and his supporters, are right: nobody could do better; and yet, somehow, no-one could do worse..

@TheExecEditor @paultheemergen1 @SurreyRoadCops Container height doesn't matter on the boat. (Well, it doesn't affect which bridges it fits under, that's for sure..)

[Rt Hon Jim Hacker MP @JimHacker]

@dca860 @dougmcfarlane41 @DerbyshireRPU @SurreyRoadCops I believe container volume is marked as 76.4 cu m, which would make the container a 40 foot 'high cube'. On a standard lorry bed, clearance required is 14' 6".

@TheExecEditor @paultheemergen1 @SurreyRoadCops @SurreyRoadCops From the markings on the back, I believe the container is an overheight type, known as a 40 foot 'high cube'. Clearance height of this on a standard bed would be 14' 6". If an old codger like me can work this out from a twitter picture, a trained lorry driver...

[Rt Hon Jim Hacker MP @JimHacker]

@alanbellapertum @SurreyRoadCops That's a 40ft 'High Cube' container, see marking "76.4 CU m" on the back, making the container height 8' 6". On a standard 6' trailer, the clearance height would be 14' 6"

"The situation is exacerbated dealing with a world leader who has a total disregard not just for international law but any form of rule or law.. No Bernard, I meant the Russians, not the PM."

The problem with Ed Davey is twofold:
1.) He looks like a Tory
2.) He's a Liberal Democrat

It's all rather like someone buying a house next to a railway line, and then spending the next three years complaining about the noise..

With backbenchers like these, who needs the Opposition?..

A man can be trusted with the Nuclear Button but not a twitter account? I don't think @jack and twitter have thought this through; at least those working at HQ, CA, 37.7765° N, 122.4172° W..
